Can I bring my car?

The short answer is no. FIGMENT ferries have limited space and the Island has asked us to minimize car traffic. However, if you absolutely need your car to transport materials for your project AND have corresponded with a FIGMENT curator about bringing your vehicle on a specific ferry to install, then it is permitted. Please note: if you arrive at the terminal with your vehicle and have not received FIGMENT approval for ferry transport, you will be turned away by the ferry staff. Additionally, any time you bring a vehicle on the island, we will need to provide the ferry staff with the list of all driver and passenger names and the make, model and license plate number of the vehicle. Please be very specific in your submission if you need to bring a car to the island for the installation of your project.
